FPV Drone Racing in Melbourne Australia in SlowMotion

Excellent slow and fast motion footage of drone racing in Melbourne Australia. The FPV footage was from a Minion 220 mini quad, while the slow motion footage was shot with an iPhone 6 at 720 pixels and at 240 frames per second. The slow motion segments of the quads flying what looks like in formation are truly awesome ! Kind of a Matrix meets Star Wars effect.

The group is racing around what looks to be a park trail. Flat ground but lots of trees and bushes to navigate around … with at least one collision. Some excellent fast flying by the pilots of what looked like 3-4 quads.

FPV drone racing is gaining traction around the world with underground races in old warehouses, groups finding empty parking structures and parks to test their skills, and even a growing number of formal races around the globe. 2015 looks to be an exciting year for drone racing !
